So they're two weeks apart minimum. Tough for any Europeans who hope to participate in both.

Thanks Edward.

For field events and sprinters it's doable. For longer track events and the Multis they would probably choose.

You would imagine that the 'better' athletes would choose worlds as the title is more prestigious and World Athletics have prize money at their events which European Athletics don't. But some may decide against the travel to China.

A big result from Glasgow in a women's 800 invitation race. Not only did Jemma Reekie beat her training partner Laura Muir smashing her own PB by three and a half seconds. She set a new British Indoor record of 1.57.91 & Muir was only 0.01 outside of Jenny Meadows time running 1.58.44.

Callum Hawkins and Charlotte Purdue were entered in the Kagawa Marugame Half Marathon this morning, both seeking their second wins on Japanese roads. The recording of the TV broadcast (with ads taken out) is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R1egq8WJ7a8
I haven't seen the race or results yet and whether Callum & Charlotte started.

Over on the Live Streaming Links thread I've started posting YouTube links of the broadcast recordings for any Far East races because they're all on TV at silly o'clock for us.

Just catching up. Jemma Reekie! Wow, where did that come from? Laura was clearly in great form and got well beaten. Problem for Jemma now is they’ll build her up for the Olympics (assuming they go ahead) which inevitably results in disappointment.

And she may have a dilemma over what event to do. The double is doable looking at the timetable but not really ideal. And doubling at Euro U23s is one thing but at Olympics? Is she ready at this stage of her career?

And there is a right spat going on on Twitter involving several British middle distance athletes, coaches, Paul Ratcliffe and others over Reekie and her Nike running spikes. Susan Boyle has even been brought into it. Check Paula Ratcliffe's timeline for all the juicy details.

Will check it out. The world can hardly get all uppity about cheating Russians if corporate America is also trying to game the system...as it tends to do.
